Was S6243PPrichardg at Archive a mag?
The Archive is located on the waterfront and is a beautiful place to sit outside. We only stopped in for a coffee as our expensive parking was about to expire, but we wished we could have stayed longer. The lady who waited on us was friendly and welcoming, without any pressure to order more than just coffee. The whole restaurant was very clean, and the restroom was excellent. We will definitely look forward to return... View all feedback.

What Luke Harrison dislikes about Archive:
Small but tasty range of vegan options. Enjoyed the harissa pastries and a couple of cakes. Coffee is good too with plant milks available. Would have liked to sample the vegan brunch but it was not on the menu. Our food was served in paper bags and the drinks in disposable cups. No napkins. View all feedback.

Friendly staff, lovely location overlooking the harbour. Had the mushrooms on sourdough toast, which was delicious. Reasonably priced, will be back.

I was disappointed with my experience at this restaurant. I only wanted a light lunch, so I ordered the Smoked Salmon Cream Cheese Sandwich with a side salad. The menu only listed a bagel, but I requested a sandwich instead. The staff seemed confused and asked if I meant two slices of bread with the salmon inside. My husband also ordered a sandwich, but his cappuccino was small for the price. The sandwich had very little salmon and the side salad consisted of only a few strands of lettuce. The staff appeared bored and I do not plan on returning. The area is beautiful with a lovely view of the harbor.

Archive is one of the best, most reliable places to eat in Ramsgate and it looks out on the harbour. We had 2x avocado on toast and 1 creamy mushrooms on toast. All excellent and these days good value for freshly prepared food. They do excellent breakfasts too. Need to come here more often.

This is a great cafe under the arches in Ramsgate. We sat upstairs with lovely views of the harbour. The service was delightful. Delicious breakfast pancakes, granola and yoghurt and washed down with the freshest cinnamon bun. Highly recommend.

It's nicely done in here but just didn't hit the spot for us. A tiny cappuccino for £3.50 and expensive menu plus a slight unfriendly vibe from one of the staff meant it wasn't for us.
